| Maven 2.1.0 |
| |
| The Apache Maven team would like to announce the release of Maven 2.1.0. |
| |
| Maven 2.1.0 is {{{../../download.html} available for download}}. |
| |
| Maven is a software project management and comprehension tool. Based on the concept of a project object model |
| (POM), Maven can manage a project's build, reporting and documentation from a central place. |
| |
| The core release is independent of the plugins available. Further releases of plugins will be made separately. |
| See the {{{../../plugins/index.html} Plugin List}} for more information. |
| |
| We hope you enjoy using Maven! If you have any questions, please consult: |
| |
| * the web site: {{http://maven.apache.org/}} |
| |
| * the maven-user mailing list: {{http://maven.apache.org/mail-lists.html}} |
| |
| * 2.1.0 Release Notes |
| |
| The full list of changes can be found in our {{{http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?version=14587&styleName=Html&projectId=10500&Create=Create}issue management system}}, and is reproduced below. |
| |
| ** Changes that may affect existing builds. |
| |
| * MNG-3600 - The <<<\<server\>>>> element in <<<settings.xml>>> no longer specifies a default value for file and directory modes on remotely deployed files. Please refer to the Settings guides for how to configure this appropriately for your deployment environment. |
| |
| * MNG-3475 - neither the script source directory nor the reporting output directory were aligned to the base directory. While this was a bug, if you used an expression such as <<<$\{basedir\}/$\{project.reporting.outputDirectory\}>>> then where this would of worked in Maven 2.0.10, it will have two copies of the project base directory in Maven 2.1.0+. You should remove the leading <<<$\{basedir\}>>> from the expression - however note that in some cases this will cause the build to be incompatible with earlier versions of Maven. |
| |
| * MNG-3940 - While environment variables are case-insensitive on Windows, Maven internally stores them in a |
| <<<Properties>>> collection. For the time being, the names of environment variables are normalized to all |
| upper-case when Maven executes on Windows, thereby at least partly abstracting from different character casing of |
| the original variable name. Hence, <<<$\{env.PATH\}>>> will now be reliably resolved on Windows. However, POMs |
| that previously used lower-case or mixed-case variable names like <<<$\{env.ProgramFiles\}>>> will need to be |
| updated. |
| |
| * MNG-4056 - Dependencies specified with a classifier of <<<sources>>> and type of <<<jar>>> are correctly considered source JARs and no longer added to the classpath. This is {{{http://code.google.com/p/gwt-maven/issues/detail?id=200} known to affect the GWT plugin}} |
| |
| ** Noteworthy Changes and improvements |
| |
| * MNG-553 - Secure Storage of Server Passwords |
| |
| * MNG-3760 - <<<$\{project.baseUri\}>>> has been added as a valid expression in the POM, and is a valid URI equivalent of <<<$\{basedir\}>>> |
| |
| * MNG-2576 - Additional switches to the command line for alternate reactor behavior: <<<--resume-from>>>, <<<--also-make>>>, and <<<--also-make-dependents>>>. |
| |
| * MNG-3379 - Parallel resolution of dependencies now occurs, with the default number of concurrent of threads set to 5. A configuration option <<<-Dmaven.artifact.threads>>> can be used to change the number of threads. |
| |
